Entrez Gene Summary for SUGCT Gene

This gene encodes a protein that is similar to members of the CaiB/baiF CoA-transferase protein family. Mutations in this gene are associated with glutaric aciduria type III. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

GeneCards Summary for SUGCT Gene

SUGCT (Succinyl-CoA:Glutarate-CoA Transferase) is a Protein Coding gene.
Diseases associated with SUGCT include glutaric acidemia type 3.
An important paralog of this gene is AMACR.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for SUGCT Gene

Catalyzes the succinyl-CoA-dependent conversion of glutarate to glutaryl-CoA. Can use different dicarboxylic acids as CoA acceptors, the preferred ones are glutarate, succinate, adipate, and 3-hydroxymethylglutarate.
